Philco 95 cap questions ( more) - simplex1040 - 02-10-2013

Ok folks on the rest of the caps in the set.

I gather that the 3788A is a .015uf
3584B is a .05

what is the 3787A part.

Thanks

3787A is an .05 cap with a 250 ohm resistor.
This info is from a Chuck Schwark post on ARF:
The phenolic tube has three terminals; the ground mounting lug which one end of a 0.05uF/400 volt cap. The other two terminals are the junction of the cap and 250 ohm, 1/2 watt resistor. The remaining lug is the other resistor end. A simple ohmmeter test can determine which is which.
